I'm not sure that getting started is the problem for me: it's writing 2000 words a day for a whole month. (Well, 1667 if you want to be pedantic about it.)<BR/><BR/>It's technically cheating to write any of the story before November. I'm concentrating on trying to work out who my characters are and how the plot might develop. Every year I think that my story is not as bad as previous years. Until January when I try to edit it.fairyhedgehoghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14141089706966852951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26791026.post-70720793818327584912008-10-13T22:55:00.000-04:002008-10-13T22:55:00.000-04:00I want to do NaNoWriMo for real, and I am trying t...I want to do NaNoWriMo for real, and I am trying to choose between two plots I've done some mental work on:<BR/><BR/>1. Ever wonder what happened to Cinderella's stepsisters after she married the Prince? Especially the one whose godmother was a witch?<BR/><BR/>2. When two ghosts--a dashing Regency duke and a modern feminist scholar--set out to solve their own murders, it's a pity they can't get along with each other, especially since the murders were obviously plotted by the same hand.talpiannahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13978075304795724185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26791026.post-54427115660792554182008-10-13T22:12:00.000-04:002008-10-13T22:12:00.000-04:00go for it/.go for it/.Evil Editorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03879826770199639420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26791026.post-48279771143315297712008-10-13T21:33:00.000-04:002008-10-13T21:33:00.000-04:00It's not cheating if we already know the fake plot...It's not cheating if we already know the fake plot we want to use, is it, EE?

So I'll be working on that through November.<BR/><BR/>NaNoWriMo was quite the experience that I thought I'd never want to repeat (even though I learned a heck of a lot from it). This makes it very tempting. Or is it procrastinating working on my WIP that's tempting?Sarah Laurensonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09252565450452195395noreply@blogger.com
